Overview

Welcome to varagh.com the first portal for Persian / Iranian card games. Here you can play several differnt games such as Hokm, Shelem, Pasur online against players from around the world for free.

After registeration and login to the site, please go to the "Games" page and choose
one of the games that can be played here. Once you have done so,
you will enter the lobby for that particular game. On the top right hand side,
you'll see the list of players currently in that lobby.

Right below that, there is a list of all the game rooms currently open.
If no room is shown, that means that there are currently no spot or no rooms
available to play. However, at any time, you can create your own room by
clicking the "New game" button.

On the lower right hand corner, there are 2 buttons, "Join Game" and "New Game."
If you are planning to join a game listed in the room's list, then click on the name of
the room, and then click on the "Join Game" button.
If however, you want to create your own room, click on the "New Game" button.
A popup will display, asking for a room name, number of rounds or score goal,
whether you would like to make this room a private room, etc.

The score goal or the number of rounds is exactly what it sounds like. It is the number of hands to be played in a room (for Hokm), and the score goal that is to be achieved (for shelem, pasur and pasur ru baaz)
If you would like to have control on who is able to join your room, then you can make a room private. Private rooms are described below in a different section.
Please note, if you are new to the site, other players may not wish to play with you until and unless you have some scores and/or reputation. Therefore, we suggest you play with other players of the same rank/score.
